Unknown: 00:00:52

Unknown: 00:01:08

Unknown: 00:01:10

if you wish to reach out to me. Reach out to me on Facebook or

Unknown: 00:01:15

Instagram, Aurora Eggert or Aurora Eggert coaching on

Unknown: 00:01:20

Instagram the Borealis experience,

Unknown: 00:01:24

it would mean the world to me to know where you're coming from?

Unknown: 00:01:28

And yeah, what motivates motivates you or inspires you?

Unknown: 00:01:35

Or what you are struggling with?

Unknown: 00:01:39

Today, I want to talk about your self image. And how much do you

Unknown: 00:01:46

need approval from others in order to be feel content?

Unknown: 00:01:53

Or successful?

Unknown: 00:01:56

When we talk about self image? What do we mean I think self

Unknown: 00:02:00

image is simply put.

Unknown: 00:02:05

When you look into the mirror, the things you feel and see. Are

Unknown: 00:02:15

you proud of yourself? Do you fully accept yourself? Can you

Unknown: 00:02:20

look yourself into the eyes?

Unknown: 00:02:25

Or don't you really give attention

Unknown: 00:02:28

to what you see in the mirror? Or even worse? Do you look at

Unknown: 00:02:33

yourself and just feel desperate? Not good? Maybe even

Unknown: 00:02:41

hateful? Do you reject what you see in the mirror?

Unknown: 00:02:48

It tells me a lot. When I asked you how do you feel when you see

Unknown: 00:02:56

a full body picture when you look at yourself in the mirror

Unknown: 00:03:01

on how you react.

Unknown: 00:03:03

And what I find so incredibly sad is that we live in a society

Unknown: 00:03:10

here in North America, where it's socially acceptable to hate

Unknown: 00:03:18

yourself and to reject your body. And sometimes it's even

Unknown: 00:03:22

the way people bond with each other. I find that so sickening.

Unknown: 00:03:29

That's not good. And with my podcast with my coaching with

Unknown: 00:03:34

everything I do, I'm trying to change this because it's not

Unknown: 00:03:38

going to get us anywhere. As society I feel it is weakening

Unknown: 00:03:45

us.

Unknown: 00:03:48

Sometimes we experienced something in our life that

Unknown: 00:03:56

changed our perspective on ourselves that changed our self

Unknown: 00:04:00

image.

Unknown: 00:04:02

Maybe we were heartbroken. Maybe we were rejected by friends. And

Unknown: 00:04:09

now we think we're not deserving. We're not worthy.

Unknown: 00:04:15

We're not enough.

Unknown: 00:04:17

Sometimes it is our own family, our parents who make us feel as

Unknown: 00:04:23

not enough.

Unknown: 00:04:27

And a deeply influences our quality of life. If your self

Unknown: 00:04:32

image is poor, if you look down on yourself, it is very hard to

Unknown: 00:04:40

be out there shining, to be out there pursuing your purpose and

Unknown: 00:04:48

to be successful because you will feel like

Unknown: 00:04:55

a fake person you will feel inauthentic

Unknown: 00:05:03

So what's most important? When I talk to people in my coaching

Unknown: 00:05:08

sessions, and they talk to me about their dreams, and where

Unknown: 00:05:11

they want to

Unknown: 00:05:13

get to in their lives is to find out how do they look at

Unknown: 00:05:17

themselves? Do they actually like themselves?

Unknown: 00:05:21

Or do they,

Unknown: 00:05:24

I don't know, abused themselves into health and happiness, to

Unknown: 00:05:30

portray a picture to the outside world,

Unknown: 00:05:34

that everything is okay.

Unknown: 00:05:38

But from the inside, nothing is okay.

Unknown: 00:05:42

And when we have that

Unknown: 00:05:45

disbalance, I don't know, if you say that in English imbalance.

Unknown: 00:05:52

It is very exhausting. It is very tiring, and nobody can run

Unknown: 00:06:02

on that imbalance for all too long, you're gonna exhaust

Unknown: 00:06:06

yourself, you're not going to be successful in a sustainable way.

Unknown: 00:06:15

And then when it comes to self image, a lot of the times, it is

Unknown: 00:06:20

very dependent on how you grew up.

Unknown: 00:06:23

What did your parents tell you?

Unknown: 00:06:28

Was you sent messages of love and acceptance, and empowerment?

Unknown: 00:06:39

Believe in yourself. And you could really feel it, it really

Unknown: 00:06:43

felt like, yeah, my people are supporting accepting me fully,

Unknown: 00:06:48

and I can do whatever I want, and I'll be successful.

Unknown: 00:06:53

I have their support?

Unknown: 00:06:56

Or did you receive the message that

Unknown: 00:07:00

you could be different, you could do things differently, and

Unknown: 00:07:04

what you're passionate about is not really worthy to pursue.

Unknown: 00:07:09

We'd rather you pursue something else, you would be way more

Unknown: 00:07:14

successful. If you would study this, if you would do that.

Unknown: 00:07:18

Instead, what you are trying to put energy into and grow

Unknown: 00:07:27

is not really worth it.

Unknown: 00:07:32

Can you change? Can you adapt? Can you be a different person?

Unknown: 00:07:39

Sometimes we get these messages from the people that we need

Unknown: 00:07:44

support the most from the people we long to be accepted the most.

Unknown: 00:07:50

And I get it, it is so crazy difficult to liberate yourself

Unknown: 00:07:55

from that because this is where you first learned

Unknown: 00:08:01

what love is.

Unknown: 00:08:04

And this is people that you look up to this is people that you

Unknown: 00:08:07

want to feel supported from.

Unknown: 00:08:13

But you are on this planet.

Unknown: 00:08:18

To shine your own light, I get it. We are born into a family

Unknown: 00:08:23

and we want a sense of belonging. And that is very

Unknown: 00:08:28

important, very critical. But we also need you to be out there as

Unknown: 00:08:34

an individual.

Unknown: 00:08:36

And sometimes you got to be a little pioneer, you got to be

Unknown: 00:08:41

the person who does something new in their family.

Unknown: 00:08:48

And you will meet resistance, you will meet disapproval,

Unknown: 00:08:53

sometimes even rejection.

Unknown: 00:08:57

Because you're going to stretch other people's belief systems,

Unknown: 00:09:02

you're going to challenge people because you will be doing things

Unknown: 00:09:05

that they themselves would never do.

Unknown: 00:09:10

Or don't have the guts

Unknown: 00:09:15

to do

Unknown: 00:09:18

and that's the hard part. to still keep pushing for your

Unknown: 00:09:23

dreams and to still believe in yourself when other people that

Unknown: 00:09:28

you love and used to look up to

Unknown: 00:09:32

and want the approval from

Unknown: 00:09:35

don't give you the support that you need.

Unknown: 00:09:42

So I'm here to tell you that if you are the person who's

Unknown: 00:09:46

listening and

Unknown: 00:09:49

presently struggling

Unknown: 00:09:55

because you don't feel supported

Unknown: 00:09:59

this

Unknown: 00:10:00

means that you need to talk more about your desires and dreams to

Unknown: 00:10:08

people that can hear you to people who have done what you

Unknown: 00:10:12

want to do in the future, before you

Unknown: 00:10:17

people who are on a similar path.

Unknown: 00:10:21

And those people will be excited to hear about your story, they

Unknown: 00:10:27

will be excited to support you. And you will be able to acquire

Unknown: 00:10:32

the tools and the skills to get closer to your dreams to your

Unknown: 00:10:37

purpose.

Unknown: 00:10:41

And first, you will not receive the support from your parents or

Unknown: 00:10:45

from your siblings or from your friends or whoever it is who's

Unknown: 00:10:48

not supporting supporting you right now, but you desperately

Unknown: 00:10:51

want it.

Unknown: 00:10:53

But there will come a point. And sometimes it's at the very end,

Unknown: 00:10:58

sometimes it's after people pass.

Unknown: 00:11:05

But it shouldn't matter. This is what I'm here to tell you that

Unknown: 00:11:08

sometimes people will realize, oh my god, he actually is a

Unknown: 00:11:13

beautiful artist, he actually is putting his energy into

Unknown: 00:11:17

something I totally Yeah, have difficulties to align with,

Unknown: 00:11:24

identify with, but he's bringing value

Unknown: 00:11:29

to society. And now I get the message.

Unknown: 00:11:36

So sometimes people will net need time

Unknown: 00:11:40

to support you down the road, sometimes they will never really

Unknown: 00:11:44

support you. The important thing is that you free yourself from

Unknown: 00:11:50

needing that approval, that you free yourself from weird

Unknown: 00:11:59

conclusions that you've made down the road about yourself

Unknown: 00:12:03

that you're not worthy that you're not deserving, that you

Unknown: 00:12:07

are not good enough.

Unknown: 00:12:10

And then go ahead,

Unknown: 00:12:13

clear your mind

Unknown: 00:12:15

and pursue your dream. And along the way, meet the people that

Unknown: 00:12:21

are in direct alignment with your dream. Because if you're

Unknown: 00:12:27

excited, if you're passionate about something, if you express

Unknown: 00:12:31

your desires, to somebody who can relate to it,

Unknown: 00:12:37

they will open doors, they will help you, they will see that you

Unknown: 00:12:43

have something to share. And you need to find an outlet you need

Unknown: 00:12:47

to channel that energy out so that everybody can see it and

Unknown: 00:12:52

benefit from it.

Unknown: 00:12:58

If you do not pursue your dreams, if you do not get into

Unknown: 00:13:05

alignment with your purpose, because you want the approval of

Unknown: 00:13:10

people,

Unknown: 00:13:13

you will end up and suffering because you are meant to shine

Unknown: 00:13:19

your light.

Unknown: 00:13:21

And you are meant to pursue your purpose to benefit humanity.

Unknown: 00:13:29

And if you shy away, if you feel that belonging is more important

Unknown: 00:13:39

than living your authentic life.

Unknown: 00:13:43

I've learned that

Unknown: 00:13:47

I hate to use the word but you will get punished for it. You

Unknown: 00:13:51

will get punished with

Unknown: 00:13:54

feeling not enough feeling inauthentic. And sometimes when

Unknown: 00:14:01

we feel these feelings for too long, we become depressed

Unknown: 00:14:12

taking a deep breath here because this

Unknown: 00:14:17

episode is like such a sweet spot when it comes to my work

Unknown: 00:14:24

when it comes to my passion.

Unknown: 00:14:26

And I've suffered for so long.

Unknown: 00:14:31

And I'm really hoping that I can give you the tools for a little

Unknown: 00:14:38

shortcut. You know, I get it. Every person has to go through

Unknown: 00:14:42

their pain and suffering and grow at their own pace. But

Unknown: 00:14:46

there is something inside of me that really truly hopes that if

Unknown: 00:14:51

you hear that message

Unknown: 00:14:53

that you can suffer a little less long than I did.

Unknown: 00:14:59

It took me a day

Unknown: 00:15:00

Qaid if not more, and if it just takes you one year or two, to be

Unknown: 00:15:06

ready to receive this message, then I feel good about it

Unknown: 00:15:11

already. If it doesn't take you 12 years.

Unknown: 00:15:16

I hope this all makes sense to you. I hope

Unknown: 00:15:20

I can connect with you down the road and you can share your

Unknown: 00:15:24

story with me. And this is an episode that was requested.

Unknown: 00:15:29

And I hope I was able to Yeah, deliver, never hesitate to

Unknown: 00:15:37

request an episode from me and I'll do my best to serve you.

Unknown: 00:15:41

And if you feel like you need a little bit more specific

Unknown: 00:15:47

inspiration, empowerment, then book a coaching call with me.

Unknown: 00:15:52

The first 60 minutes are for free. And my clients

Unknown: 00:15:59

like can confirm that after two sessions at times, they were

Unknown: 00:16:04

able to make significant changes in their lives that will help

Unknown: 00:16:09

them

Unknown: 00:16:11

for the rest of their lives. I'm not wanting to wanting to make

Unknown: 00:16:14

you dependent on me. I'm one to truly empower you and liberate

Unknown: 00:16:18

you.

Unknown: 00:16:20

So yeah,

Unknown: 00:16:23

Unknown: 00:16:29

I will be out there very soon again. take really good care of

Unknown: 00:16:33
